For those of you who haven't seen the factory traction control and near perfect balance in action... Check it out:


Extremely surprising how capable this truck is. Especially with the near flat underside with IFS/IRS there is so much clearance.

Hey MontyPower, I'll come wrench with you on Saturday after lunch time. Is that good with you?

Sounds good. Hopefully, I'll be able to tear into the engine...

Montypower, can you post a list of all your parts and where you got them. I have a Montero in Haiti, and it needs more off road ability and armor. Thanks

Will try to. Although, most of the venders/importers will be different in Haiti than the US.

I'm not in Haiti at this moment, so looking to gather parts to put on when I return. Thanks

I'm working for the next two weekends... Will work on it after that (still waiting on parts too). Would love to have a hand if you are free later in the month.

Yeah sounds great, just let me know, I'll bring my Raider.

I'm moving into the new house on Friday. Planning to help a buddy on his deck Saturday am. We can meet up after lunch. Give me a shout around noon.

Just updated the page 1 with part numbers and venders. Will have more to come...

Lots of updates! The portal doesn't allow photos to be uploaded so I haven't bothered with updating this thread.

This has all the current build information: http://gitout.com/showthread.php?15...edition-Build-2003-Mitsubishi-Montero-Limited

ARB Bumper, Zeon 10s, Lovells Springs, OME Sport Shocks, Rock Sliders, Bushskinz Full skids, DieHard Plat 31m, ARB Compressor, Sleeping platform & ARB Fridge Installed. Plus about $3k worth of motor / truck maintenance (all oem parts): Headlights, Brakes/Rotors F/R, Heads Rebuilt, Tbelt, Water Pump, All Pulleys, All hoses, Belt, Injector Rebuild, starter, plugs, wires, crank/cam sensor and a long long list more.. Basically the motor was stripped to the block. Every part was hand cleaned and anything replaceable was replaced with factory parts. It runs like new!

I have 4.90 Gears and ARB Lockers ready to install. I'll be replacing the CV boots and all bushings when those get installed (new bearings for the diffs too). Then LRA 15 or 20 Gallon Fuel tank and custom rear bumper. Working on design for full roof rack for awnings, maxtrax, camp lighting and kayak hauling.

Just got back from a 2,300 mile expedition trip through Montana and Wyoming. Some incredible trails and beautiful sites. Heading to Mt Rainier area next month.

cool to see what you've got going on. You can definitely upload photos though, I do it all the time using the "insert image" button at the top of the post editor window.
